Whenever you want to record a TV program, all you need to do is look up the program’s “PlusCode,” a number assigned to each program published in the TV section of most newspapers, cable TV listings, and even TV GUIDE magazine. Then, just enter the PlusCode number of the program you want and the VCR is automatically programmed to record that show. It’s that simple. You can preset up to six programs within a one month time frame. To take advantage of this function, you must first set up your Video/TV and assign channel positions to the various guide channels. For details, see “Setting Up VCR Plus+ system” on page 16.
Before you begin
•Make sure that the time and date are set correctly. If not, refer to “Setting the Clock” on page 12.
•Make sure that the loaded cassette has its safety tab intact.
